Books and Blogs: Write. Click. Scrapbook

Each Thursday I review a book or blog related to scrapbooking.
The Review
Write. Click. Scrapbook. is an excellent blog with a steady stream of useful content. I reviewed this blog from March 7 to April 7, 2011.
Write. Click. Scrapbook. is written by a collective. Each week, a different author wrote the posts on a specific topic.

During week 1, the posts were about cardmaking by Emily Pitts. I do not consider myself a cardmaker, so I did not get much out of these particular posts for this reason.

During week 2, the posts were from different photographers discussing their photography philosophy. This was more useful to me, because I am working on learning how to use the manual mode on my dslr.

During week 3, the posts were from Amy Sorensen, who wrote about using your supplies. I really enjoyed these posts because not only did she talk about using various supplies, she also talked about strategies to determine which supplies to keep, purge, and buy in the first place. I was excited to see these posts as I will be debuting a new series tomorrow called Minimalist Scrapbooking that uses some of these principles.

During week 4, the posts were from Wendy Smedley, who wrote a series of posts on using frames in home decor.

During week 5, the posts were about random topics by Erin Sweeney (sorry, I could not find a link to her own blog. If you have it, send it to me and I’ll update the post.). Though there was not an explicit theme like the previous weeks, it was nice to see a variety of posts, too.

Throughout the month, there were giveaways and posts that were simply a photograph paired with a quote. These types of posts were not used too often, but were spaced perfectly to break-up the more in-depth posts. The posts from Write. Click. Scrapbook. are more detailed than your typical blog, but they are focused and provide great content in the process.
